Head coach Eddie Jones has named his England training squad for the Autumn Nations Series this morning with the group set to meet up for a few days next week.
“This is an exciting squad made up of experienced players and young guys who did well in the summer and earned their place again,” said Jones.
“We have left out some experienced players but we’re really clear that the door isn’t closed to them, and we’re looking forward to seeing them work hard to get back into contention.
“We have five campaigns now until the 2023 World Cup so each one counts, and this is a chance for this 45 to impress the new coaching staff.”
The camp will form part of England’s preparations for the Autumn Internationals in November, when they will host Tonga [Saturday 6 November, 3.15pm KO], Australia [Saturday 13 November, 5.30pm KO] and world champions South Africa [Saturday 20 November, 3.15pm KO]. All matches will be live on Amazon Prime.
